It's a useless module with the purpose of experimenting npm packages releasing workflow.

To streamline release process, we will use semantic-release to assist with this.

Normal release workflow

Same as what is currently in place.

Prerelease workflow

• Make sure pre-release branch is in sync with master
• Add pre-release features on pre-release branch
• Run semantic-release from pre-release branch which will result in x.x.x-prerelease.1
• Keep adding them if there is more
• Once you are happy with it, merge into master and release from there to create a GA. Note, need to check no prerelease dep is included.

Rules

1. Never ever manually modify npm versions or github tags and releases. Failing to do this could result in a big confusion for semantic-release to work out the version it needs to release.
2. When determining the next release, semantic-release will look through commit history to find the last one on the current branch:

* 590e7a2 - (tag: v1.2.0) chore(release): 1.2.0 [skip ci] (19 hours ago) <semantic-release-bot>

So, in this case, semantic-release will target 1.3.0 for the next release.
